Apple fans are very much excited as they wait for the release date and price of the all-new Airpods. Well, the waiting game is almost over as the product will be available after just a couple of weeks.

According to HNGN, there was an email conversation between an Apple customer and Apple CEO Tim Cook, which confirms this news.

Cook stated, "Thanks for your note. Sorry for the delay - we are finalizing them, and I anticipate we will begin to ship over the next few weeks," MacRumors has reported.

The customer was said to be complaining about being stuck on the standard EarPods because it cannot be connected while the iPhone 7 is charging. Moreover, the customer asked if the release of the Airpods will take at least six months after the iPhone 7's release.

With Cook's reply, there is now a guarantee that the Apple Airpods will come out in December this year or January 2017 at the latest.

There were particular problems that Apple encountered. Difficulties in the production process caused said Apple accessory to become immediately unavailable for customers.

Alongside with the release date of iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus last October 2016, Apple unveiled the Airpods for future availability. GameNGuide has reported that said accessory would come at a retail price of USD 159.

In this case, Apple announced that they are still taking their time to perfect the gadget before officially selling it to customers. Well, it's undeniable that the tech giant has faced criticisms on the onset of the new headset's release, given that it'll certainly be a break away from the comfort zones of iPhone users, as many of them are accustomed to using wired earphones.

Meanwhile, there are also reports that Apple is ready to release the iPhone 8 with wireless charging technology, given the impending availability of wireless headphones. Now that's certainly one interesting thing to watch out from Apple.
